Man, Sikuli. My mind just blasted to see that people did similar stuff in 2009!

When I saw a few months ago, Open Interpreter used OpenCV to interpret GUI. Don't you think Sikuli was way way ahead of its time?

Please tell me more about the success part, if you could tell me more about what steps did Sikuli performed? how fast was it? Because when I last tried Open Interpreter that used OpenCV, it felt way too slow for UI e2e testing.

Sikuli was at least a decade ahead of its time.

It was slow; I just threw bigger computers at it.

My use case was complicated. I was testing HSM-like workflows across multiple hosts using native UIs. It worked really well.

Yeah!

Are you still into E2E testing these days? I am currently of the thought process that using AI to create e2e tests is not the right strategy but letting AI maintain it is the right one.

Any thoughts you would like to share since you are have had more experience using AI for e2e testing than anybody I know.
